It was best behaviour all round during February at Harvey Nichols, Leeds.

Incasso hosted their now famous (or infamous!) Ladies Evening, themed around the film "Breakfast at Tiffanys". With themed goody bags, decor and the film and soundtrack playing throughout the evening, our female clients threw themselves with vigour into the event.

After a cocktail reception of Raspberry-tinis and Mango Daiquiries, dinner was served. Included in the courses were; Wild Mushroom Ravioli, Gressingham Duck, Chinese Fillet of Bream and trio of vanilla desserts. Over coffee, and plenty of wine, comedienne Mandy Muden entertained, leaving guests with full stomachs, dangerously-high alcohol levels, and tears of laughter in their eyes.

In a twist, we decided this year to see if the men could behave as badly, and debuted a Gentlemen's Evening, also at Harvey Nichols.

Held two weeks before the Ladies Evening, the evening was the first event for the Incasso Gentlemen's Club and was themed around the yuppie-lifetsyle famous in Gentlemen's private clubs. After a lager reception, featuring guest lagers from around the world, the Gentlemen sat down to a "posh school-dinner" meal, including; Lamb chops, beans on toast, pork pie and mushy peas, fish and chips, chocolate tart and pick custard and spotted dick. During coffee and brandies, magician Nick Reade entertained and amazed with his magic tricks, although alcohol and the need to concentrate on the card picked were not a good combination for one guest!

All in all, both events were highly successful, with wonderful feedback from all who attended. Harvey Nichols only have 12 months to recover!
